Fever, constipation: Fever can cause fluid loss thru sweating that can lead to dehydration if fluid intake is poor. Bloating can come from gas-forming foods, air swallowing when eating, or infection (food poisoning, "stomach flu"). Replacing fluids is essential to prevent severe dehydration (& continued constipation). If problem persists, see FP to determine cause of fever especially if fever was over 101º
